ADVICE TO THE LOVEWORN
by UNCLE PETE
Dear Uncle Peter, .
I have a problem, but good. You no
doubt have heard that many people have
suffered from the national emergency,but
Imust' have hit the jackpot* You see,first
the navy .took one of my boy-friends and
just last week my main heart-throb was
drafted. What should I do?

Dear" Jean Dunks,

And I said give me a red
When God gave out ears

And I said give m@ & big
When God gave out brains

clearing house for derelict marriages., A
drivers license cost twenty-five cents
in Georgia'and is free in lowa, while
Pennsylvania charges one dollar. These
social evidences of our disunity certain
ly won't hamper our war effort directly,
but they contribute to the national pic
ture; and taey have a telling effect dn,
the morale of many of us.
